Veteran’s programs, treatment and therapy
Psychiatric professionals at Del Amo in Southern California specialize in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety and other behavioral health issues that directly affect veterans.
Evidence-based therapies. Use cognitive behavioral therapy, cognitive processing, present-centered therapy and mindfulness interventions.
Case management. Assess for immediate risks such as homelessness, substance abuse or suicidal thoughts. We’ll tailor a wellness strategy that outlines the patient’s steps.
Service eligibility. Determine eligibility for veteran services and benefits provided by the US Department of Veteran’s Affairs or through state and local community programs.
Medication management. Medication interactions for behavioral conditions and substance use disorders can impact drug safety and efficacy.
Family coordination. Work with your loved one to encourage them to get help. A healthy support system may help prevent relapse.
We’re committed to providing exceptional patient care and compassionate service for military veterans. Staff is trained in trauma care and recovery coping techniques, including:
- Individual and peer group therapy to share experiences that may lead to healing.
- Coping techniques to help veterans maintain their recovery and prevent setbacks.
